Tick tick, tick tick, tick
Time ticked like a pic
And when you listen real close
Sound like the metronome
Glitter in my eyes when I was young
Now they say I ran away from home
God, thank you I learned the world (the world)

They think I'm the broken girl (girl)
Hoo-ooh yeah
I think I'm in love with lost (lost)
Hoo-hoo hoo-hoo yeah
My heart cracked but at least it's touched (touched)
Hoo-hoo hoo-hoo yeah
Tick tick tick tick tick tick tick
Tick tick tick tick tick tick
I'm the metronome
I'm the metronome (yeah)

Tick tick tick tick tick tick tick
Tick tick tick tick tick tick
I'm the metronome
I'm the metronome (yeah)

Lullabies and sing along
Now the city calls and the siren strong (siren's strong)
Glitter in my eyes when I was young
Now they say I ran away from
I think I'm in love with lost (lost)

Hoo-hoo hoo-hoo yeah
My heart cracked but at least it's touched (touched)
Hoo-hoo hoo-hoo yeah
Tick tick tick tick tick tick tick
Tick tick tick tick tick tick
I'm the metronome
I'm the metronome (yeah)

Tick tick tick tick tick tick tick
Tick tick tick tick tick tick
I'm the metronome
I'm the metronome (yeah)
